Turning an old bubba'd no.4 mk1 into a usable rifle.

[evilgrin]

Wow, yeah thats bad! It's a shame to see these old rifles get butchered like that. IF you do the work yourself you can fix it up pretty cheap. I spent about $125 for everything I did on mine. Thats including the new stock. If you want to turn it into a shooter, I say go for it. Either that or it will sit like it is forever. I don't like dust collectors in the back of my safe.

Cheers,

I updated my original post to show my latest range report. 4" groups at 230 yards is pretty decent I think. I'm happy with that.

You slug the barrel first?

Nice work. Ya need another project.
My recent acquisition. Bubbed to the tenth degree. The stock alterations.

The brazed floor plate, with the mag cut and hammered in.

All the proof marks ground off.

And another accessary

The things I didn't show are the bayonet lugs ground off, the barrel cut, the barrel painted 3 times! The newly applied serial number. The rifling is strong, it hits a 10 inch gong at 100. I just don't know if its worth fixing.

If you don't want it maybe we can make a deal
